“SURRENDER”
“A cold-glow confession unfolding through metallic rhythm, industrial bite, and noir-drenched seduction“
London-based producer, songwriter and vocalist Claudia Kane releases the music video to Surrender, the debut single on her newly founded imprint Villainess. Surrender is a cold-blooded club elegy – a fusion of mechanical percussion, brooding synth textures and haunting vocal intimacy. Written, produced and performed by Kane, the track builds a tense and sensuous atmosphere: equal parts dystopian confession and dancefloor descent. The single is accompanied by a stylised visual directed by Joseph Icaro, extending Claudia’s multidisciplinary focus across music, image and narrative. Enveloped in leather, chrome, and chiaroscuro tension, the video enacts a solitary confrontation with the self – evoking a world of digital surveillance, doomed patterns, and romantic resistance. Kane’s movement is jagged and possessed, seductive yet unsettling: a physical expression of psychological unrest.
